Front garden

Our front garden, with the upper dam and the landscaping we inherited from our house’s previous owner. We don’t spend enough time out here, due to the fact we can see our neighbour’s house, and it destroys the illusion that we are alone surrounded by tranquil acres bushland. Well, we are surrounded by acres of bushland, but it’s a narrow and long property, with neighbours on either side. The view from our back verandah is uninterrupted by rooftops or fences, so we tend to spend most of our time out there.
